Lyrics for For Veronica's Sake

I got a name and number I got a bed assigned I got a dog in the city pound That I left behind I'm strapped down and wild eyed She's locked up in a pen She needs somebody to feed her And I'm her only friend So for Veronica's sake, I gotta get out of here Yeah, for Veronica's sake she can get pretty weird Yeah, for Veronica's sake I gotta get myself out of here We both been put in cages We got our shots and tags I got my sweating fist to shake She's got her tail to wag She has to bark and whimper While I can scream and shout The clock above the psycho ward Says time is running out So for Veronica's sake, I gotta get out of here Yeah, for Veronica's sake she can get pretty weird Yeah, for Veronica's sake, I gotta get myself out of here And I can hear her howling all night At the lonely moon They're gonna give her the gas If I don't get there soon I gotta get there soon For Veronica's sake I gotta get out of here Yeah, for Veronica's sake she can get really weird Yeah, for Veronica's sake I gotta get out of here For Veronica's sake I gotta get out of here Yeah, for Veronica's sake she can get pretty weird For Veronica's sake I gotta get out of here Yeah, for Veronica's sake she can get pretty weird For Veronica's sake I gotta get out of here Yeah, for Veronica's sake she can get pretty weird For Veronica's sake
